ABSTRACT

Finger millet blast caused by Magnaporthe grisea(anamorph: Pyricularia grisea) is a great threat to finger millet production worldwide. Genetic diversity and population structure of 72M. griseaisolates collected from finger millet (56), foxtail millet (6), pearl millet (7) and rice (3) frommajor crop growing areas inIndiawas studied using 24 SSR markers. None of the SSRs detected polymorphism in the M. grisea isolates from pearl millet. Seventeen SSR markers were polymorphicin the 65 non pearl millet isolates anddetected 105 alleles, of which one was rare, 83 common, 9 frequent and 12 most frequent. A model-based population structure analysis of the genomic data identified two distinct populations with varying levels of ancestral admixtures among the 65M. griseaisolates. Analysis of molecular variance (AMOVA)indicated that 52% of the total variation among the isolates used in this study was due to differences between the pathogen populations adapted to different hosts, 42% was due to differences in the isolates from the same host, and the remaining 6% due to heterozygosity within isolates. High genetic variability present in M. grisea isolates calls for the continuous monitoring of M. grisea populations anticipating blast resistance breakdown in finger millet cultivars grown in India.

1.0. Introduction

Finger millet (Eleusine coracana L. Gaertn) is a widely grown grain cereal in the semi-arid areas of East and southern Africa and South Asia under varied agro-climatic conditions [1]. Finger millet is being increasingly recognized as apromising source of micronutrients and protein [2] forweak and immune-compromised people [3]. Besides energy, it contributes to alleviating micronutrient and protein malnutrition also called ‘hidden hunger’ affecting half of the world’s population, especially women and pre-school children in most countries of Africa and South-east Asia [4]. Malnutrition due to protein deficiency is alsofound at alarming rates in the Indian subcontinent [5]. Although finger millet is tolerant to many biotic and abiotic stresses, the crop is severely affected by blast disease caused by an ascomycete fungus Magnaporthe grisea (Hebert) Barr. (anamorph: Pyricularia grisea (Cooke) Sacc.), which is very prominent among the constraints that affect yield, utilization and trade of finger millet within East Africa and South Asia [6,7]. Many of the widely grown landraces and high yielding varieties are susceptible to blast with yield losses of 10-50% being common [3] and losses canbe as high as 80-90% in the endemic areas [8]. The disease affects the crop at all growth stages from seedling to grain formation, withpanicle blast being the most destructive form of the disease [9,10]. M. grisea is pathogenic to more than 50 graminaceous hosts including food security crops such as rice, wheat, finger millet, pearl millet and foxtail millet [11,12]. Despitethewide host range of the pathogen, M. grisea populations mainly exist as host-specific (adapted) forms, capable of infecting a single host [13,14]. While some researchers have demonstrated successful infection of a host by anisolatefrom a different host under experimental conditions [15,16], others failed to confirm the results [13].

In thecase of finger millet, blast management through host resistance is very economical and relevant for the resource-poor and marginal farmers who cannot afford other methods of disease control such as use of expensive chemical fungicides. However,

(4)

resistance breakdown is a greatchallenge while breeding for blast resistance in finger millet because of pathogenic variation in M. grisea. It is important not only to develop cultivars with durable resistance, but also to monitor virulence change in the pathogen populations to anticipate resistance breakdown in existing finger millet cultivars, and to designstrategies to sustain cultivation of high yielding,farmer and consumer preferred cultivars [17]. Lack of knowledge on the pathogen adapted to finger millet in India has hindered efforts towards identification and development of resistant cultivars adapted to local agro-ecological conditions. Consequently, research efforts have focused on understanding the M. grisea population structure by combining modern molecular-biotechnological approaches with traditional pathological assays. Substantial work has been done in the rice-blast pathosystem, whereas such studies are very limited for the finger millet-blast pathosystem[3,7,14]. In order to measure genetic variability more precisely, molecular markers thatprovide an unbiased estimate of total genomic variation and have the potential to minimize errors due to sampling variance have been developed [18]. Furthermore, determination of fungal genetic diversity based on molecular markers is reliable as it is independent of culture conditions. DNA fingerprinting techniques have created new tools for the molecular analysis of M. oryzae populations [19] and this is equally applicable to M. grisea populations adapted to finger millet.

Assessment of genetic diversity in M. grisea from different crops has mostly relied on use of clones of the transposon MGR as a probe to detectrestriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP), which is an expensive and time-consuming approach. Simple sequence repeats (SSRs) or microsatellites are PCR-based molecular markers, which may be more desirable for population genetic analysis because this approach makes it simpler to obtain accurate polymorphic data due to co dominance. Besides, these markers are highly reproducible, locus-specific, multi-allelic and abundant in animal, plant and

(5)

microbialgenomes [20]. Although generation of SSR markers is a time-consuming, labor-intensive and expensive task, several SSR markers have already been developed for M. grisea infecting rice [21–24]. However, SSRs have not been used to investigate pathogen populations adapted to finger millet. Prior few studies have examinedgenetic diversity in finger millet-infecting populations of M. griseausing MGR-RFLP [14], AFLP [3] and RAPD markers [7]. Here, we analyzedfinger millet infecting populations of M. grisea, collected from Andhra Pradesh, Bihar and Karnataka, India along with M. grisea isolates from pearl millet, foxtail millet and rice using SSR markers to (i) assess extent of genetic diversity in finger millet-infecting populations of M. grisea (ii) investigate genetic relatedness amongM. grisea populations adapted to finger millet, foxtail millet, pearl millet and rice

2.0. Material and Methods

2.1. Pathogen isolates

Blast infected (leaf, neck and finger) samples of finger millet, foxtail millet and rice were collected from Vizianagaram, Patancheru, and Nandyal in Andhra Pradesh, Mandya and Naganahalli in Karnataka, and Dholi in Bihar, India during 2008-10 rainy seasons (Table 1). In addition, seven M. grisea isolates from four major pearl millet growing states in India – Rajasthan, Haryana, Maharashtra and Uttar Pradesh [25] were also included in this study (Table 1). Isolations of M. grisea were made from the blast-infected tissue on oatmeal agar medium (rolled oats 50 g, agar 15 g, distilled water 1 L) and incubated at 25±1°C for 15 days. After incubation, a dilute spore suspension (3×103 spores/ml) was prepared in sterile double-distilled water and plated onto 4% water agar in Petri plates. Single germinating conidia were marked after 10-12 h of incubation under a microscope and transferred to test tubes containing oatmeal agar for further studies.

(6)

Isolates of M. grisea were grown in 2X yeast extract glucose (YEG) medium [14] in shake culture for 7-10 days at 25°C. Mycelia were harvested by filtration through Whatman filter paper No. 1, dried on blotting papers and ground to a fine powder in liquid nitrogen with a pre-cooled pestle and mortar. Genomic DNA was extracted from 200 mg of powdered mycelium of each isolate using CTAB (cetyltrimethylammonium bromide) method as suggested by Viji et al. [14]. The quantity and quality of the extracted DNA was assessed by running the DNA on 1% agarose gel, stained with ethidium bromide and photographed under UV illumination.

2.3. SSR genotyping

Twenty-four SSR markers (Pyrms7-8, Pyrms 15-16, Pyrms33-34, Pyrms37-38, Pyrms 39-40, Pyrms41-42, Pyrms 43-44, Pyrms 45-46, Pyrms47-48, Pyrms 59-60, Pyrms 61-62, Pyrms 63-64, Pyrms 67-68, Pyrms 77-78, Pyrms 81-82, Pyrms 83-84, Pyrms 87-88, Pyrms 93-94, Pyrms 99-100, Pyrms 101-102, Pyrms 107-108, Pyrms 109-110, Pyrms 115-116 and Pyrms125-126) [22] were used for analyzing the SSR diversity in M. griseaisolates (Table 2). The forwardprimers were synthesized by adding M13-forward primer sequence (5’CACGACGTTGTAAAACGAC3’) at the 5’end of each primer. PCR was performed in 5 μl reaction volume with final concentrations of 5 ng of DNA, 2.5 mM MgCl2, 0.2 mM of dNTPs, 1X PCR buffer, 0.006 pM of M13-tailed forward primer, 0.09 pM of M13-Forward primer labeled with either 6-Fam or Vic or Ned or Pet (Applied Biosystems), 0.09 pM of reverse primers and 0.1 U of Taq DNA polymerase (SibEnzyme Ltd., Russia) in a GeneAmp® PCR System 9700 thermal cycler (Applied Biosystems, USA) with the following cyclic conditions: initial denaturation at 94˚C for 3 min then 10 cycles of denaturation at 94˚C for 1 min, annealing at 61˚C for 1 min (temperature reduced by 1˚C for each cycle) and extension at 72˚C for 1 min. This was followed by 40 cycles of denaturation at 94˚C for 1

(7)

min, annealing at 54˚C for 1 min and extension at 72˚C for 1 min with the final extension of 10 min at 72˚C. The PCR products were tested for amplification on 1.2% agarose.

Based on their expected amplicon size and/or dye, PCR products were pooled together along with internal size standard (GeneScan™ 500 LIZ® from Applied Biosystems) and capillary electrophoresis was carried out using ABI 3730xl Genetic Analyzer (Applied Biosystems, USA). Raw data produced from theABI 3730xl Genetic Analyser was analysed using Genemapper software (Applied Biosystems, USA) and fragment size was scored in base pairs (bp) based on the relative migration of the internal size standard.

2.4. Determination of allele frequency and diversity analysis

The alleles for each SSR locus across the samples were scored in terms of fragment length of the PCR amplified product in base pairs and used to calculate the basic statistics such as polymorphic information content (PIC), allelic richness as determined by a total number of the detected alleles, major allele frequency (MAF), number of alleles per locus, gene diversity (GD), heterozygosity (H) and occurrence of unique, rare, common, frequent and most frequent alleles using PowerMarker version 3.25 [26].These estimates were performed across all the M. grisea isolates, and separately among isolates from different hosts. Unique alleles are those that are present in one isolate or one group of isolates but absent in other isolates or group of isolates. Rare alleles are those whose frequency is ≤ 1% in the investigated isolates. Common alleles have>1%-20% frequency while those occurring with >20 -50% and >50% frequencies were classified as frequent alleles and most frequent alleles, respectively.

2.5. Unweighted Neighbor-joining tree

The allelic data were converted into a binary matrix using the scores 1/0 for presence/ absence of the allele. A similarity matrix was generated from the binary data using Jaccard

(8)

similarity coefficient in the SIMQUAL program to cluster the isolates usingNTSYS-pc package [27].

2.5. Analysis of molecular variance (AMOVA)

Analysis of molecular variance for theM. grisea isolates from different hosts collected from different locations was performed using the software ARLEQUIN [28].

2.6. Population structure analysis

A set of 17 SSR markers were used to dissect the population structure ofM. grisea isolates from finger millet, foxtail millet and rice. In order to infer the population structure of theM. grisea isolates without considering the host origin, the analysis was performed using the software package STRUCTURE version 2.3.4(http://pritch.bsd. uchicago.edu/structure.html) [29]. This method uses multilocus genotypes to infer the fraction of an isolate’s genetic ancestry that belongs to a population for a given number of populations (K). The program STRUCTURE implements a model based clustering method for inferring population structure using isolate data consisting of unlinked markers to identify k clusters to which the program then assigns each individual isolate. To determine most appropriate K value, burn-in Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) replication was set to 300,000 and data were collected over 200,000 MCMC replications in each run. Three independent runs were performed setting the number of population (K) from 2 to 15 using a model allowing for admixture and correlated allele frequencies. The basis of this kind of clustering method is the allocation of individual genotypes to K clusters in such a way that linkage equilibrium isvalid within clusters, whereas this kind of equilibrium is absent between clusters. The K value was determined by LnP(D) in STRUCTURE output based on the rate of change in LnP(D) between successive K. The model choice criterion to detect the most probable value of K was ΔK, which is an ad hoc quantity related to the second-order change in the log probability of data (Ln P(D)) with

(9)

respect to the number of clusters inferred by Structure [30].The MCMC chain was run multiple times, using a correlated allele frequency model (prior mean = 0.01, prior SD = 0.05 and Lambda = 1.0) in the advance option of the STRUCTURE version 2.3.4.

3.0. Results

3.1. Polymorphic SSRs among M. grisea isolates

For assaying allelic diversity in 72 M. grisea isolates, a total of 24 SSR markers were used. However, only 17 (74%) produced clear, scorable and polymorphic markers among M. grisea isolates from different hosts and locations (3 pairs amplifieda product in all 72 isolates). The remaining seven (26%) primer pairs (Pyrms 33-34, Pyrms 39-40, Pyrms 43-44, Pyrms 81-82, Pyrms 83-84, Pyrms 101-102 and Pyrms 115-116) were found monomorphic in allM. grisea isolates. None of the primer pairs detected polymorphism in pearl millet infecting M. griseapopulations, butonly three SSR markers (Pyrms 47-48, Pyrms 63-64 and Pyrms 67-68) amplified DNA frompearl millet isolates.Thus, isolates from pearl millet were excluded from further study. One SSR marker (Pyrms 43-44) amplified onlyfoxtail millet isolates. A high level of polymorphism was observed for 17 SSRs in the 65 isolates of M. grisea from finger millet, foxtail millet and rice (Table 1); thus, these SSRs and isolates were selected for further studies (Table 2).

3.2. Allelic richness and diversity in M. grisea

The 17 polymorphic SSR markers detected total 105 alleles in the 65 M. grisea isolates assayed. The number of alleles per locus ranged from 2 (Pyrms 37-38) to 13 (Pyrms 15-16) with an average of 6.18 alleles/locus (Table 2). The allele size ranged from 119 to 384 bp. The polymorphic information content (PIC) values varied from 0.205 (Pyrms 37-38) to 0.805 (Pyrms 67-68) with an average of 0.486/marker. Three markers Pyrms 15-16, Pyrms 61-62 and Pyrms 67-68 were highly polymorphic. Gene diversity, defined as the probability

(10)

that two randomly chosen alleles from the population are different, varied from 0.232 (Pyrms 37-38) to 0.827 (Pyrms 67-68), with an average of 0.517. A very low level of heterozygosity (0.000 to 0.046) was detected in M. grisea isolates but for Pyrms 45-46 which detected 0.586 heterozygosity. Seven SSR loci detected no heterozygosity while nine detected <0.05 heterozygosity.

Of the 105 alleles detected in M. grisea isolates, only one was rare, 83 common, 9 frequent and 12 were most frequent. Common alleles were detected at all 17 SSR lociranging from 1 (Pyrms 37-38) to 12 (Pyrms15-16) with an average of 4.88 alleles per locus while frequent alleles ranged from 1 to 2 with an average of 0.52frequent alleles per locus. Most frequent alleles were detected atall the SSR loci except Pyrms 15-16, Pyrms 47-48, Pyrms 59-60, Pyrms 61-62 and Pyrms 67-68 with an average of 0.70 alleles per locus (Table 2).

3.3. Diversity in M. grisea populations adapted to different hosts

Of the 105 alleles detected in the 65 M. grisea isolates, 75 (one rare, 51 common, 10 frequent and 13most frequent)were from fifty-six fingermillet isolates, 44 (22 common, 12 frequent and 10 most frequent alleles) from six foxtail millet isolates and 15 most frequent alleles from three rice isolates (Table 3). The number of alleles per locus in finger millet isolates ranged from 2 to 13 with an average of 4.41 alleles; whereas in foxtail milletisolates, it ranged from 1 to 4 with an average of 2.75.The PIC value ranged from 0.067 to 0.759 (average 0.369) in finger millet isolates, 0.0 to 0.620 (average 0.420) in foxtail millet isolates and 0.0 to 1.0 (average 0.062) in rice isolates.

3.4. Genetic variability among M. grisea isolates from different hosts

Cluster analysis classified the isolates into three major groups that corresponded with the host specificity of the isolates (Fig. 1). However, there was an exception to this correspondence; two finger millet isolates (FMP1 and FMV20) were placed in

(11)

group,otherwiseconstituted by foxtail millet isolates. Overall topology of the dendrogram indicated the presence of three lineages in M. grisea species complex infecting different hosts. Several subgroups were observed for populations from finger and foxtail millet indicating high genetic variability within and between different host-limited forms of M. grisea. Of the 56 isolates from finger millet, 53 were clustered together in one group, whereas the other 2 were grouped together with foxtail millet isolates,and one isolate (FMP7), althoughsharing slight below 50% similarity was still most closely associated with thefinger millet group.

As all but two of the isolates were clustered in host-specific groups, all the SSR allelic data were inspected to determine host-specific alleles. Three SSR loci (Pyrms 15-16, Pyrms 37-38, Pyrms 63-64)showed alleles unique to finger millet-infecting isolates. In terms of locations-specific alleles among the isolates, five SSR loci (Pyrms 45-46, Pyrms 59-60, Pyrms 61-62, Pyrms 87-88, Pyrms 125-126) showed unique alleles for the isolates from Mandya, and one SSR marker (Pyrms 47-48)detected a unique allele for the isolates from Vizianagaram. 

3.5. Analysis of molecular variance (AMOVA)

Analysis of molecular variance (AMOVA) indicated that 52% of the total variation among the isolates used in this study was due to differences between the pathogen populations adapted to different hosts, 42% was due to differences in the isolates from the same host, and the remaining 6% due to heterozygosity within isolates.

3.6. Genetic structure of M. grisea isolates

Analysis of 65 M. grisea isolates for population structure using a model-based approach providedevidence for the presence of significant population structure inM. grisea and identified two genetically distinct groups or admixtures within the M. grisea isolates

(12)

from different hosts. The model-based simulation of population structure using SSRs showed the estimated likelihood values being variable among different runs (K= 2–15).However, inference of the exact value of K (gene pool) was not straightforward because theestimated LnP(D) values increased continuously tillK = 15 (Fig. 2A), although aplateau started developing at K=8. There were abrupt changes in LnP(D) value between K = 5 and K = 6; K = 6 andK = 7;K = 7 and K = 8. The model choice criterion to detect the most probable value of K was ΔK (Fig. 2B).The highest value of ΔKfor this data set was found atK = 2 (Fig. 2B). This suggested that the set of isolates was partitioned into two groups (subpopulations), which corresponded to the host origin with a few exceptions (Fig. 3). According to the membership pattern when K = 2, group 2 was the largest with 54 (83%) isolates representing only finger millet from different locations. Group 1 was represented by 11 isolates which included all the foxtal millet and rice isolates, and two finger millet isolates (FMP1 and FMV20).

4.0. Discussion

We evaluated 24 SSR markers reported by Kaye et al. [22]for assaying the molecular diversity in M. grisea populations adapted to different hosts. The polymorphism detected by selectedSSRs in M. grisea was quite high and thus can be used as an efficient tool for genetic diversity studies. The percentage of polymorphic SSRs observed here is very close to that reported by Kaye et al. [22] and by Zheng et al. [23] among M. grisea isolates from rice. In contrast, Suzuki et al. [24] observed very low levels of polymorphisms in the M. grisea isolates collected in Japan and concluded that the field isolates collected in recent years probably were genetically similar and belonged to a limited number of lineages [31].

The number of alleles per locus in the present study was positively correlated with gene diversity (r = 0.83, P < 0.01) and common alleles (r = 0.98, P<0.01). Positive relationships observed between allele size range and the amount of variation at SSR loci (as

(13)

measured by allele/locus and gene diversity) indicated that SSR loci with large allele range show greater variation. It has been suggested that SSR polymorphism results from two different mechanisms: slippage during replication and unequal crossing over [32]. Occurrence of both mating types in M. grisea populations infecting finger millet has been reported in India [14]. Therefore,thepolymorphisms detected in our study could havebeen generated both because of unequal crossing over and by replication slippage.The number of repeats of a SSR marker is a useful predictor of its possible polymorphism [33].Wefound that SSRs with longer repeat motifs were less polymorphic (Table 2). Similar observations were madeby Zheng et al. [23] in M. grisea populations adapted to rice.

The polymorphic SSR markers in the present study detected 2 to 13 alleles with an average of 6.18 alleles per locus. Variable number of alleles per locus has been reported in previous studies on M. grisea populations [22,23,24]. Variation in allele number observed in the present study and that reported in the earlier studies could be due to the large population size and the sampling strategy used to recover isolates in these areas as well as the extent of genetic variation in the isolates[34]. Similarly, variation in the PIC valueswas observed in our study and those reported earlier. The higher gene diversity value in the present study can be attributed to the diverse M. grisea isolates collected from different hosts and locations [22]. Nevertheless, the reported PIC values for these SSR primer pairs may be useful in selecting comparatively more informative markers for assessment of molecular diversity in M. grisea isolates from India or elsewhere.

We found that the isolates originatingfrom different plant parts (leaf and neck blast) of the same finger millet genotype were randomly distributed in the dendrogram, while some of the isolates from the infected neck and fingers of the same genotypes were grouped in one cluster. These results indicate that multiple independent infections occur on the same plant and an infection may progress to the finger from the neck and vice versa. These observations

(14)

also indicate that there are no strains specific to leaf, neck or finger blast[35]. In addition, finger millet varieties have shown a consistent reaction to different forms of blast, with limited exceptions [9,36]. Diversity in pathogen populations has also been reported to be higher within field and between cultivars rather than between sub-populations from leaf and panicle in rice [37].

A high degree of variation was observed within the isolates from the same host, especially among isolates from finger millet where a large number of isolates were collected.Several clusters of the isolates from finger millet were observed in the dendrogram depicting genetic variation among the isolates from the same host. Similar results have been documented by Singh and Kumar [7]. In general, isolates from same host were grouped together; however, two finger millet isolates (FMP1 and FMV20) shared SSR profile and clustered along with foxtail millet isolates indicating potential for gene flow occurring between pathogen populations adapted to two different hosts. These findings are in agreement with Rathouret al. [38] who suggested the possibility of gene flow between the M. griseapopulations infecting finger millet and jungle rice. Evidence also exists for genetic recombination between the M. grisea infecting rice and finger millet in the Indian Himalayas [39,40] where both the hosts have been growing sympatrically for centuries. In contrast, Vijiet al. [14] reported that the blast fungus collected from rice and finger millet did not cross-infect and also gave different fingerprint patterns based on MGR-DNA fingerprinting. In the present study, the DNA polymorphism did not reflect the geographical distribution of isolates. Similar observations were reported by Xia et al. [41]for rice blast and Takanet al. [3]for finger millet blast, though in some cases importance of geographical regions has been correlated [42].

An insight into the structure of M. grisea populations from different hosts and locations is valuable in enhancing our understanding of the biology of the pathogen and

(15)

potentially adaptive genotypic diversity in the species. Model-based population structure analysis of M. grisea did not reveal any location/region specific grouping of isolates. However, most of the isolates were grouped based on their host with a few exceptions. All the isolates from rice and foxtail millet were grouped together in Group 1 along with two finger millet isolates (FMP1 and FMV20). Group 2 consisted of mostly genetically similar isolates from finger millet with a few exceptions (Fig. 3) showing some admixture. These included two isolates each from Nandyal (FMNd34 and FMNd48) and Patancheru (FMP7 and FMP12). These differences in population structure among isolates within the same species and geographic regions are likely related to differences in evolutionary history and ecology [34]. Similar observations were made by Tosaet al. [43] who found that Oryza and Setaria isolates shared two avirulence genes PWT1 and PWT2 and were genetically closer to each other.

In finger millet-blast system, resistance breeding has proven to be difficult; however, efforts are being made for the genetic improvement of finger millet especially for blast resistance[3,17]. Present study provides some insight into the biology of M. grisea adapted to finger millet and its relationship with the pathogen populations adapted to rice and foxtail millet. The genetic diversity observed in the finger millet adapted populations of M. grisea might be indicative of variation for pathogenicity as well. Thus, understanding the pathogenic nature of the populations belonging to different lineages will help forming the framework for finger millet blast management programs especially through host plant resistance.
